All the bedrooms are double in size, with bedroom two enjoying fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom has been transformed into a fabulous dressing room, with a full range of Hammonds fitted wardrobes. Currently the fourth bedroom is being used as a home office and benefits from stylish fitted bookshelves. Both bedrooms at the rear of the home have great views over the fishing lakes behind. A family bathroom completes this floor.

A beautiful small town adjoining the River Thames and on the borders of Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Wiltshire, Lechlade has a population of just over 3,000. There are several independent shops, a small supermarket, a church, doctors’ surgery, excellent primary school and a library. There is a healthy tourist trade, particularly in the summer, when the Thames is busy with cruisers, narrow boats and small boats. There is good fishing in the local rivers and lakes, country walks in the beautiful Cotswolds countryside, and various nature reserves in the area. The town is a good staging-post for visitors to the Cotswolds and the historic towns of Oxford and Cirencester.
